WOW Dan you have hote yourself a serious bit of kit there. i was with you the whole way through the hubsan escapade but i must admit i am very happy with my hubsan now.but this machine looks another level and footage was amazing so i cant wait for 4k footage, very stable, looks mean and i would rather have a controller in that style, thanks for bringing this to my attention i will be watching very closely in future vids thanks bud.Darren

hey drone that was a sweet f**** video you just made I'm looking at your video and some of the things you did I kind of made the same mistake somehow the first time I tried to take up my drone flipped upside down to I just want everybody to know me and drone just bought a brand new bird and they both big birds but getting back to what I was saying that's amazing you took that thing all the way around the track and then you took it up in the clouds man I didn't even have the nerve to do that I took mine a couple of feet away from me turned it around bring it back to me and landed it I know you're probably saying why why would he do that I never flying a big bird before the only one I ever flown with the hubsan 501 s and that's the small one but the next time I go out I'm going to do just what you did drone I'm going to put her through the paces just like what you did those Big Bird's man is a whole different feeling when I threw mine I really felt the same way you felt like I was flying a professional bird it is a good feeling hey drone I can see it in your eyes man when you took that drone up you look like a kid at Christmas time man you had all smiles on your face dude I wish I could hang out with you down the field I live in Maryland you live a little bit too far away from me but that's okay I'll check your videos oh I bet you'll be sleeping good tonight big smile on your face lol

beautiful, stable amazing quality camera. Not like our h501s. Thank goodness i have an x380 with the g2d gimbal cuz footage without a gimbal kinda sucks. I'm happy for you man i hope you enjoy every second of her!

dammit you guys.. I had just been looking at this just curious.. see the refurb price.. think to myself I could probably do that.. see dw get one.. think to myself again.. yeah..definitely afforadable.. then see the link… I'm 459.99 poorer.. thanks a lot guys.. sheesh.. lol..and just took my phantom 3 advanced out for her maiden flight today(got the videos up with the hubsan 501s doing same flyover of my son in laws farm shop on my channel).. difference is night and day between my phantom and the 501s and all this time I thought I was getting good footage on my hubsan.. and now ill be getting 4k footage.. might as well go ahead and get my commercial uav license and make some money from these farmers.. I know ag pilots charge them 150.00 for a flyby just to see if anything looks wrong in their fields.. ill take a video of it and charge em half that and give em a dvd.. lol.. congrats on the new bird .. your gonna make me in trouble with my wife eventually..

Great video, that camera shoots some nice video, miss mine. It's awesome how the video is right on the transmitter. Enjoy it. The card mine came with was good for 4K, I forgot what class it was. My Mavic came with a class 3.

I'm pleased for you. I had a similar experience when I bought a Phantom 4 near the end of last year. Even if you down-configure the P4 to numbers similar to the H501s, there is simply no way to compare the two as camera platforms. The P4 is a pro tool, the H501s just isn't. But… a large part of the fun of owning an H501s is tweaking it to try to improve performance. With the P4 – and your Yuneec drone it seems – that part of the fun will be missing, so I suspect that you now may have two hobbies, one will be aerial photography with the Yuneec, the other will be "how to tweak your drone" featuring the Hubsan. 🙂

Really good film felicitation…..Yuneec make a good drone i have a Yuneec Breeze and i m really satisfy Breeze is good for selfie and vacation his so small but the Yuneec Typhoon make a really nice footage.. is really better thand a Hubsan. my first drone was a n Hubsan H501s and is not comparable than a TyphoonGood job ma friend….

Do you use an anemometer? Would you recommend getting one because I read that you shouldn't fly between 8-12 mph winds? I have only had this bird up in the air once for 3 mins arrrghhhh and I want a decent flight but weather is quite sketchy at the moment here in the U.K. Would you recommend having one just to be on the safe side? Also I love your videos. They help me with confidence about flying this bird fully. Can't wait to get it up and test it out to the max! Thanks bud 👍

I was going to get that but I just couldn't stretch my budget to fit. My Phantom 3 is arriving tomorrow. what you guys pay in dollars we pay slightly more in pounds (£) so you've got yourself a real bargain with great features

this is reallycool and a hell lot of fun but definitively not a toy. i flew mine for the first time today and i am a absolute dummie. i have never flown a drone in my life and i have no experience at all haha. greetings from switzerland. my first 4k videos are up here.

I just got a refurbished one myself and I flew it for the first time today. The battery I got with the unit was swollen and wouldn't take a charge, but fortunately the 2nd battery I ordered showed up. Yuneec customer service was great. I have a Mavic Pro and the Mavic runs circles around this Q500K. It feels cheap compared to the Mavic. It moves pretty slow. It's a bigger unit, so I guess that's part of it. If I paid full price for this I would have been disappointed. Just my opinion.

Mr Drone Worship, Question, I need some kind of logical reasoning because its not just for the Q…. Im interested in buying and installing the ITELITE DBS YUNEEC/CHROMA ST10 ST10+ (ITE-DBS01_2), now the question???? Why is this a phenomenon, some people have great results when installing this and some have major failure when using and testing for results. It goes for Flat panel antennas also…. WHY??? If I stood next to 9 other people with the same exact Q500 4k RTF Quads 5 would have poor results and 5 would have great results. Do you think its all geographical and EMI infested area's???
